Loses

Famous quotes containing the word loses:

    A real gentleman, even if he loses everything he owns, must show no emotion. Money must be so far beneath a gentleman that it is hardly worth troubling about.
    Feodor Dostoyevsky (1821–1881)

    Well, Pa, a woman can change better than a man. A man lives, sort of, well, in jerks. A baby’s born or somebody dies and that’s a jerk. He gets a farm or loses it and that’s a jerk. With a woman, it’s all in one flow, like a stream. Little eddies and waterfalls, but the river, it goes right on. A woman looks at it that way.
    Nunnally Johnson (1897–1977)

    The bad gains respect through imitation, the good loses it—especially in art.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
